"To answer Frank"
Frank was quoting the content of a vision a woman
who believed in 7th DA --
"The first tablet had 4 commandments
and shown greater then the others. A greater light was on the 4 the commandment
thus meaning it was the most significant commandment. Also in another subsequent
vision she was told that the 1st day sabbath was a sign of the mark of
the beast..."
And he questioned it here:
"One thing that struck me after
watching the dovies for many years was the 4 commandments on one side and
6 on the other. 5 represents grace and God is very specific with his numbers
so lop sided commandments did not make sense. Googling Hebrew
commandment images seemed to confirm that . Also, why would the 4th commandment
superimpose the 1st..."
I am not saying that 7th DA are correct in their doctrine,
but I would like to point out that this does appear to be a vision from
the Lord.
Here is the understanding, as I believe it to be....
and just found it confirmed elsewhere:
According to the Medieval Sefer ha-Chinuch, the first
four statements concern the relationship between God and humans, while
the next six statements concern the relationships between people.
Thus, the first four are wrapped up in the GREATEST commandment,
while the remaining six are wrapped up in the SECOND commandment like it:
Matt. 22:36 "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment
in the Law?" 37Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart
and with all your soul and with all your mind.' 38This is the first and
greatest commandment. 39And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor
as yourself.' 40All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments"
